Changes are available directly from:
https://git.linaro.org/people/leif.lindholm/edk2.git/log/?h=upstreaming/git-maintainer-rfc

This series adds new tags to the Maintainers.txt format, making it possible
to describe which filesystem paths are looked after by which people, and
hence automating the extraction of a list over who should be cc:d on a patch
submission.

Remaining shorcomings in RFC:
- Will still be misparsing OvmfPkg and MdeModulePkg due to non-tag lines
  interspersed with the tag lines. These lines will be removed as areas of
  responsibility is formally rewritten as tags.
- * Wildcard support is not fully filesystem compliant except in first or
  last position in the path (it translates as regex .* elsewhere). However,
  actual cases of mismatch are expected to be unlikely, and they will be
  false positives rather than false negatives - so I think this is good
  enough at least for a start.
- Provides no information of why certain people or meiling lists were
  picked - it just bundles all recipients up, deduplicates them, and prints
  them out.

Using the script requires the gitpython module to be installed.

Changelog:
rfc:
- Split patches up
  - one for new Maintainers.txt format (documentation and F: tags).
  - one for adding a new wilcards responsibility area for */Arm, */AArch64
  - one for the GetMaintainer.py script
- Reworked wildcard handling based on Laszlo's explanation
  - Trailing / covers everything under that directory
  - Trailing * does not cover subdirectories
- Added support for X: tag
- Added support for magic '<default>' pathname
- Also prints mailing list addresses for matching L: tags

Leif Lindholm (3):
  Maintainers.txt: update for filesystem area descriptions

the series was not posted with correct threading. No need to resubmit
the series just for that (for my sake anyway), but please fix up the
config for any future postings.

Thanks
Laszlo

Fix suggested on patch #1 (splitting sections).

Also good enough for a start :)
